Most companies say they have a culture. Very few actually do. In this episode of Management Muse, Cindi Baldi and Geoffrey Tumlin break down what workplace culture really means and why most organizations fall short.  Cindi and Geoff explain how culture acts like choreography. When people know the steps, they move in sync. When they don’t, departments end up dancing to different music which breeds confusion, inefficiency, and sometimes outright conflict. Without shared values, leaders are stuck micromanaging because there is no built-in guidance for decision-making. This episode is for executives and team leads who want clarity on the framework of building a culture that drives performance. You’ll learn the two key drivers to unify your organization, and why culture, when done right, becomes your best tool for performance and coordination. Episode Highlights: What real culture is and how to tell if you have it The two things you need to build a successful culture What happens when every department has its own values How shared values guide decisions, behavior, and performance Why strong cultures reduce the need for micromanagement The role of peer accountability in culture enforcement Watch This Episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/ju7rgp9wVb0 *Take your executive team to the next level with On-Demand Leadership *Purchase your copy of The Uncertainty Playbook here *Sign up for our newsletter and let us know what topic you’d like to hear next!
